Abstract

This study deals with the larval morphology of the six commonest species of Chrysobothris that occur in eastern Canada. The morphology of the genus is presented as a guide to the terminology. For each species, a short diagnosis is given, followed by a detailed description, its geographical distribution and a list of its host-plant genera. A key to the larvae is provided.
